Game Devs killed POE2

Listen to the community stop being weird. Some of us want the game to succeed but it seems as if the poe2 devs ignore what the community is saying. Game is dead after 12 days. Pretty impressive that you can cause more then 50% of players to quit cause you wont listen to people that have thousands of hours played already.

Jonathan is 1 person yet he wants the game to remain in a state of hot garbage. While the thousands of people in the community want change. Either he has to bend to our will or the game is dead before it even has time to launch.

Remove towers, give us movement speed that doesnt feel like we are stuck in a quantum tunnel, and buff the loot. Drops are actually non existent and endgame boss uniques got so nerfed so hard that noone even wants them. EA launch was way better then this garbage that 0.2 has become.

Why even have interviews with streamers if your not gonna listen. The last interview with Ziz was sooo cringe, both Jonathan and Mark were acting extremely rude to Ziz and talking over him and not even letting him finish what he had to say. And now we have this ARPG that seems more like a SRPG (Sleep Role Playing Game) its soooo boring.

Ive tried to play but just find myself in my hideout with no direction of what to do. Mapping sucks/ Bossing is a waste of time and feels even worse/ Loot is non existent/ Economy was destroyed on day 1....again!/

Like do the devs even care what POE2 turns into? Because at this point its not what anyone wants unless they have no idea how much better POE1 is. I guess 3rd time is a charm? Maybe you guys will get it right in 0.3 but im going to boycott until you guys open your ears and listen to the community and stop getting butthurt when the community says, "no thats actually garbage" to Jonathan or Marks horrific ideas.

It seems as if Jonathan and Mark want the game to be dungeons and dragons the board game. This is 2025 and noone wants that kind of game. We want fast and rewarding gameplay. Not what we currently have where it takes new players 3 days to get to endgame content. And thats 3 days of grinding more then 12 hours a day.

Most people dont have more then 2 hours of free time to even play the game as they have real life responsibilities. Imagine those players taking 18 days to finish the campaign. What a joke! Fix your game GGG! Chris would have never let this happen.

Hurry up and get POE1 back to its former glory cause im not playing Settler League for a 4th time. Imagine you have to realease POE1 with the same league 4 times in a row. Something isnt right at GGG and it shows. Shape up or ship out DEVS!

I will say it again, they made game for themselves in the way Jonathan and Mark enjoy it , we just provided them with $$ .

This game was never meant for us.

That's why they keep repeating ''vision''

They nerfed everything else into the ground and buffed Huntress in order to call it a ''massive success'' because they knew everyone would be playing it if everything else is crap.

Same D4 did with Spiritborn.

I had 570 divines invested into my ice monk before update . I had flat 320 k dps. After update my dps droped to 90k. One would think 90k dps is enough for mapping , but it was not because not only dps got butchered,but everything else as well. My screen clearing dmg ability turned into ability that can barely kill 3 mobs at the time . Literal overkill and i dont know why would anyone do that...

That proves it how much they actually care about us and what we want game to look like.

So my gear (specifically Quarterstaff ) which i bought for 280 divines , now i cant even sell for 50.

I would advise against continuing to play prior leagues in EA.

Sage advice. I don’t understand: why are so many people crying about broken stuff in an early access? Like, what did you expect? 🤣

I guess common sense and patience are scarce goods nowadays.

Imo it seems like the devs are defending their game like it's a castle from invaders, who are actually just players trying to engage in the content. Why are they resisting allowing their player base engage in the content that assumedly they developed for the player base?

omg they killed it before even releasing it!? that's messed up!!!

people paid $30 to play this EA so they care

Agree, Jonathan needs to take a very long vacation to Dark Souls Island and stay there
